well this was a concern of mine after pulling the ignition coil wires off and then the cam cam cover I was shocked at the condition and just how brittle they had become so I was I was very concerned when I used the Turkey-baster and seen bits and prices floating in the baster? know here I am looking at four of these tubes about 4" long filled with oil and broken material ?? thinking to myself how much I sure miss the days of SBC (small block Chevys) So any way to make a long story short I got out my little shop wet and dry vac 3.5 HP and suck the material out of the tubs oil do wonder to my nice little shop vac ? Anyway feel confident no debris is in the cylinders new plugs are in and time out for awhile what simple job is pain for of course the PVC hose is brittle and broken and the other do hickie line is cracked so gee it only another 40mins across town to the auto parts should be done by well I don't know ??

sure like this turkey-baster sucks the oil right out great idea thanks for all your Help ?

well after searching around it seems I cant get just the tube seals they are not sold separately ? they come with the cover for they are sealed into the cover as a whole i am taking you Good advice going to use the turkey-baster snuck it out of the house? bought new plugs be very through on cleaning must have no dirt falling in to ports this worries me lots of oil in these tubes of each of about 4 inch ea that a lot of oil to soak up oh and also going to replace the boots with new ones the olds are just soak with oil don't believe I will get good contact if I use the old ones ?

Auto Parts can't believe this so my Daily Driver '03 Nissian Altima had developed a multi miss firing about last week so I plug my OBD II into it and gives me a code P0300 multiple misfiring detected so I go after the the Boot wires to the plugs and find 3 out of the 4 tube seal chambers filled with oil ? will of course this is my problem no way am i getting good spark ?? to my plugs from the boot wires when they are sitting in oil ? so I proceed to go ahead and rectify this problem and get it corrected and pull the Valve Cover and Yes the Seals are shot They Must be Replaced now they are just fancy looking 0-Rings that sit in the cover so me thinking heck can't cost that much ? ..... WRONG Now this is my IRK for the day Can't buy just the 0-Rings Must replace the whole Valve Cover ??. You know one of those Nissian Quirks (I miss the old Chevy Days) So no not a few cents for some 0-Rings but $130.00 + CA tax for a Valve Cover and then to look at ......i ask Steve the guy at the Auto Store where is the Gasket for this over ? Oh will have to purchase that separate he looks at and says just use the old one ?? yea right dude. So Really what should just be and easy replacement has cost me $$ for what amounts to a 0-rings leaking into my tube cylinders and of course Murphys Law.... New Plugs, New Boot Wires , New Boot Wires, New Air Fliter , New PVC ...... Stop Oil Leak in Tube Chambers so the Boots and Tips of Plugs no longer sit in a Oil Bath hope to make the code go away a make my Nissian Run like it Should wish me luck guys Any Mechanics on board here ? Let me know if I am heading in the right direction ? Cheers Don ?....... Are the way me feeling ??
